Use special tool. Remove the steering wheel.
Move the tires to the straight ahead position before
removing the steering wheel.
Steering wheel remover: 5-8840-0016-0 (J-29752)
CAUTION:
Never apply force to the steering wheel in direction of the
shaft by using a hammer or other impact tools in an
attempt to remove the steering wheel. The steering shaft
is designed as an energy absorbing unit.
6. Steering Column Cover
7. Combination Switch and SRS Coil Assembly
1) Disconnect the wiring harness connectors
located under the steering column.
2) Remove the combination switch assembly with
SRS coil.
NOTE:
The SRS coil is a part of the combination switch
assembly, which can not be replaced separately.
Therefore, be sure not to remove the SRS coil from
the combination switch assembly.

7. Combination Switch and SRS Coil Assembly
1) After installation of combination switch
assembly, connect the combination switch
wiring harness connector and the SRS 2way
connector located under the steering column.
2) Turn the SRS coil counterclockwise to full, return
about 3 turns and align the neutral mark.
CAUTION:
When turning the SRS coil counterclockwise to full, stop
turning if resistance is felt. Forced further turning may
damage to the cable in the SRS coil.

7. Record the pinion depth code on the head of the
drive pinion.
The number indicates a necessary change in the
pinion mounting distance. A plus number indi-
cates the need for a greater mounting distance
(which can be achieved by decreasing the shim
thickness). A minus number indicates the need
for a smaller mounting distance (which can be
achieved by increasing the shim thickness). If ex-
amination reveals pinion depth code ª0º, the pin-
ion is ªnominalº.
